I didn’t realize this thread exists! May I ask here my question again, as here was not many takers in the SO thread?

anyone has Gold bag with darker contrast stitching and can provide pictures / opinions, please? I am thinking of a B30 Gold Togo with ebene-tone stiches and I wonder if it makes the bag too heavy (or even allowed!)? Thanks!

So interesting....not sure that I have ever seen gold with anything but white. I am sure that it would look fabulous...gold is such a great, neutral color!

thanks for replying. The most I've seen is tonal stiching (apparently an SO) but never darker. I've also poured the SO thread but looks like Gold SO is very rare. Really curious!

This is not a dark stitch, but this is the Gold Togo So Flash (Éclat) Kelly with Orange stitching. The contrast is much more noticeable close up. SOs have definitely been approved with non-Naturel stitch on Gold. Èbéne would look good, I think. Very interesting choice.

Just a couple of contrast stitching classics - b35s in gold with ghw (togo) and bleu jean with phw (fjord).

Love contrast stitching on all of your beauties. Especially the typical cream/white against gold.

Does this count?
View attachment 4132628 I’d say so! As you can see from my profile pic, I have the same bag! Fun fact (which you probably already know): Hermes created it in 1989 in the French national colors of blue, white & red, to honor the 200th anniversary of the French Revolution.
